For September we did our take on sunflowers!  Steve really helped get these done this time and we are sure glad! They aren’t exactly the rolled cones like you have seen other places, ours are a little sloppier! But we think that it was a good thing for this project to have some of the ends of the rolls overlap the next petal.  The assembly went way faster with 4 hands!

The first step was figuring out the sizes of the squares and rolling them. We used a tool from our jewelry supplies to roll them all the same size.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We stapled the petals together at the bottom.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then we stapled them onto a cardboard circle. This is where 4 hands were very helpful!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then we used the shredded paper for the centers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some lettering and it was ready to go up!
